This paper initiates the launch and the integration of a new scientific concept: "Mechatronics Galaxy", a support of industrial research for European sustainable and strategic development. This new concept is based on achievement and development of evolutionary and integrative-synergistic concepts regarding micro-nanomechatronics engineering, micro-nanoelectronics engineering and micro-nanoIT engineering for: spatial, temporal and functional integration;intelligent adaptive behaviour based on perception, self-learning, self-diagnostics and systemic reconfiguration; adequate flexibility of software and hardware structures; predictive development of micro-nano-mechatronics structures and of the intelligent computerized applicability with high added value; simultaneous mix-integrative design of micro-nano-products, micro-nano-systems and micro-nano-technologies; a strategy of technological impact in economy, industry, society and education. Thus, the new concept "Mechatronics Galaxy" creates and develops micro-nano-mechatronics engineering, based on fundamental and applied techniques: micro-nano-mechatronics, micro-nano-robotics, micro-nano-integronics, micro-nano-sensoristics, micro-nano-actuators, micro-nano-processing and intelligent micro-nano-manufacturing.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
